Offshore wind can power Europe seven timesover

Technical potential of offshorewind- 25,000 TWh by 2020- 30,000 TWh by 2030

EU energy demand- 3,537 TWh by 2020

- 4,279 TWh by 2030

100 GW and counting

EWEA has identified proposals for over 100 GW ofoffshore wind projects in European waters: 100+ GW would meet 10% of EU electricity demand

100+ GW would avoid 200 Mt of CO annually

100+ GW shows the significant level of developerinterest

EWEAs prediction: 40 GW by 2020150 GW by 2030

EWEAs 20 year offshore networkdevelopment plan

Contains the grid updates needed to transport allelectricity produced by planned, proposed, underconstruction and operating offshore wind farms toEuropean electricity consumers in an economicallysound way

Recommends building transnational offshore gridinfrastructure to connect

40 GW by 2020

150 GW by 2030

EWEAs 20 year offshore networkdevelopment plan

Based on:

- Existing TSO plans

- TradeWind scenarios

Added value of plan:

- Provides step by step timetable for grid

development- Suggested capacities

- Integrated with development/concession zones

Building the European offshore grid

Predictable energy output

Connections to more than one country

Power trading between countries Viable alternative to onshore grid construction

Connection to other marine renewable energysources

More economical utilisation of grid through

shared use More energy security

More interconnection capacity means morefirm power

Building a single European electricity market

would benefit all consumers

Benefits
